Which machine do I need?

24V specialists
Truck & heavy-duty diagnostics
Trucks and fleets need dedicated 24V coverage. Buy a complete kit, or add a truck module to an X431 tablet you already own.
Modules are not standalone
The SmartLink C 2.0 and HD3 add 24V coverage to a compatible X431 tablet. Our SmartLink C 2.0 is the standard version and works with X431 V+, PRO3, PRO3S and PRO5 series tablets. HD3 is the older module and does not work with the X431 PRO5.

Buy with confidence
Why buy from a local LAUNCH specialist?
Software updates follow the sales territory. LAUNCH restricts updates by region, so a unit bought outside its intended territory may never receive them, and loses its value as vehicles change.
Updates are also an ongoing cost. After the free period, renewals run at roughly US$350 a year for 12V car software and US$499 a year for truck and diesel.
